Import from US, a Macbook Pro cost around $1400 back to Malaysia, will get taxed, right?

But I have checked on duty calculators, it seems duty free and is exempt of VAT.

Here is the link, http://www.dutycalculator.com/new-import-d...ails/188263575/

Anyways, I have heard some guys that laptop will get taxed, I am confused! Please anyone could tell me whether or not laptop will get taxed?

Thanks

I thought you'd need SIRIM approval as well for electronic devices?

Anyways, I want to ask, what if I buy a board only amp module? Will I need to get SIRIM approval?
I was thinking of asking the seller to label it under "DIY PCB", or "DIY PCB + Components", do you guys think it won't need the SIRIM? tongue.gif

Worry not, as laptop is duty free under Tariff Code 8471.30 000...
Printed Circuit Board (PCB) no need SIRIM approval but subject to 10% sales tax (Tariff Code : 8534.00 000)

Yeah I was expecting the 10%. Thanks. smile.gif

Has anybody bought rechargable batteries from overseas before?

I'm considering buying a pair of 9V Li-ion batteries with a charger. The shop is at Singapore. Will it be held in Kastam, do I need SIRIM approval?

If I buy an item from overseas, and ship it to Labuan, will it be taxed?
Also, what if I ship stuff that isn't taxed in Labuan but is taxed in mainlands of Malaysia (such as automotive stuff), will taxed be imposed on those things too?
